They hint/imply/argue/shout that we could do that only a) because I avoided the draft, b) because we gave up trying to have children, we did not adopt, and we did not become foster parents, c) because the federal government grossly overpaid me, d) because my Civil Service Retirement System pension is too generous, and e) because my federal health, dental, and vision insurance subsidy (currently $17,288) is too generous. Last year, our out-of-pocket medical expenses were $21,433.)

JOURNAL COURIER
— Disappearing company towns search for identity – AP
http://myjournalcourier.com/news/106230/disappearing-company-towns-search-for-identity
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Peoria Mayor Jim Ardis planned to open this year’s State of the City speech by thanking Caterpillar Inc. for its longtime commitment to the central Illinois town, declaring “We wouldn’t be Peoria without Caterpillar.” It’s been that way for decades in Peoria and in other company towns across the United States. A major employer provided generations of locals with jobs and gave the cities a central identity, while executives helped keep cultural institutions, Rotary clubs and higher-end housing markets healthy. Now many of those midsize communities are looking for a new identity as more companies trade their longtime hometowns for major cities with easier access to global markets and to the lifestyle talented young workers want, with public transit, nightlife and trendy restaurants. Caterpillar’s recent decision to move 300 top headquarters jobs to the Chicago area made Peoria the latest city with a vacuum to fill. In 2014, Decatur lost Archer Daniels Midland’s headquarters to Chicago after 40 years in the town. ConAgra Foods moved 1,000 jobs last year from Omaha to Chicago.)

HERALD & REVIEW
— Illinois has revenue, and tax loopholes – Carly Wolfram, Crystal Lake (DIERSEN: What loopholes have your critics/opponents, their operatives, or their dupes accused you of exploiting? Money Magazine and my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates hinted/implied/argued/shouted that the graduate business courses that took at Loyola 1972-1976, the graduate accounting courses that I took at DePaul 1976-1980, and the graduate finance courses that I took at IIT 1992-1997 were NOT deductible because they a) were not job-related, b) did not help me carry out my job duties, c) were taken by me to get a job in the private sector, and d) were a distraction. To keep their jobs and to get promoted, my Democrat IRS and GAO superiors, supervisors, coworkers, and subordinates focused on getting rid of federal employees who were Republican, White, male, older, and/or non-veteran.)
